Posted May 19, 201312 yr http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/lv/thumb/4/45/Emmelie-de-Forest-Only-Teardrops.jpg/200px-Emmelie-de-Forest-Only-Teardrops.jpg Tonight, Emmelie de Forest won the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest with her song 'Only Teardrops'! It is the lead single from her debut album also called 'Only Teardrops'. This is a fantastic song and I am so glad it won, it was my 2nd favourite entry of the whole contest only behind Cascada. I thought it deserved a topic in the pop forum just like Loreen's new single has got one. Hopefully it can chart well in the UK chart next Sunday!

May 19, 201312 yr I am loving this, it wasn't my absolute favourite on the night but I'm very happy it won and am going to have to get ahold of that album.
May 19, 201312 yr Best song won for another year! Glad it looks like being a UK hit given the frosty reception from the nation as a whole when it comes to Eurovision.
May 19, 201312 yr This is alright on first listen, it doesn't sound very original though. Meh. Oh, and that chorus is so Shakira that it really does hurt.
May 19, 201312 yr Better than at least half of the current UK top 40. She TOTALLY looks like Sara Canning (Jenna from the Vampire Diaries): http://images4.fanpop.com/image/photos/17900000/Sara-Canning-Jenna-jenna-sommers-17961049-466-700.jpg
May 19, 201312 yr Author Incredibly, 'Only Teardrops' has charted at #99 officially this week despite the chart week ending just 30 minutes after she was announced as this year's Eurovision winner! :cheer:
May 25, 201312 yr Author Fantastic to see 'Only Teardrops' at #72 on the rolling UK Radio Airplay Chart according to ukairplaychart.com! :D
May 27, 201312 yr Officially number 15, pitty it missed the top 10 but leaving Euphoria aside Teardrops is doing very very well comparing to other previous winners.

June 3, 201312 yr Author She has posted on Facebook that "the will be ready in about 10 days"! That'd be very quick, can't wait to see it! :D
June 12, 201312 yr Author The 'Only Teardrops' music video will be released tomorrow according to Emmelie's Facebook page! :D
June 13, 201312 yr They were crazy to have left the video so long. Only Teardrops was a predicted to win for ages before the show so they knew it would likely do well, the momentum is gone now as Eurovision is finished over a month ago and then they come with the video. Not a great strategy.
June 13, 201312 yr Video here: http://www.dr.dk/melodigrandprix/Artikler/...drops-video.htm Don't know if it's on YouTube yet, though. I really like it, the scenes in the forest are very nice looking, and the clips of her elsewhere/in the studio are great. :wub:

Not a great strategy. Euphoria didn't have a video either, when it won, did it? It did just fine without it though.
